A graduate of the Brussels Royal Acadamy of Fine Arts and a self-taight musician, Abid Bahri excelled as a soloist and composer (music for choreography, Qayna, Soufi Stations). Moving between encounters with essential groups such as Ahl El hijra (1975-1983), Weshm (1987-2001) and Luthomania, he never stopped developing his own style.
Discography
Au gré du Oud (IGLOOMONDO - 2008)
"Abid Bahri alternated the sounds of the oud, mixing them with the aesthetics of a violin or cello. He set us comfortably in a musical sofa of many soound textures, where strings that were scratched embraced those that were plucked alongside percussion." ADDI Yahya (1958-2007)
Qayna(IGLOOMONDO - 2005)
A journey in time through the written and spoken word. A stroll through the extraordinary experience that was the Qayna, the free/enslaved women that also came from conquered people – free due to their perfect mastery of poetry and vocabulary, of singing and instruments.
